These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Revenue increased as the division of labor across sales processes proved effective, while the increase in cost of sales was limited to ¥101 million against a ¥453 million increase in revenue. Meanwhile, selling, general and administrative expenses increased due to growth investments, including higher personnel expenses, stepped-up hiring, preparations for opening new offices and research and development.
